I am a Western New York native. I grew up in West Seneca and attended SUNY Brockport for Communications before starting my career in Broadcasting. I have always been proud to say I am the daughter of a 32-year veteran of the Buffalo Fire Department, now retired. My mom was employed by the old Buffalo Savings Bank, which eventually became Goldome and then Keybank. I have an older sister and brother. I'm married to the most wonderful guy I know. My husband Jerry and I have two children, Jenna who is 12 and Ryan who is now 10. We keep busy with the kids playing Lacrosse, Hockey and Baseball. Jen is also a Cheerleader. We're excited for the holidays to be coming... Christmas is truely my favorite time of year.

Which leads me to the question, should NHL players be required to take more safeguards in the equipment they wear?
